Chapter 833 Drinking poison to quench thirst

Chapter 833 Drinking poison to quench thirst

"Oh God, why do you want to take away the pillars of my family? Could it be that God doesn't want my Yuwen clan to prosper..."

When Yuchigang saw that Yuwentai had been silent for a long time and was sweating profusely and was waiting to call the doctor to come in, Yuwentai, who was lying on his back in the mat, suddenly twitched and cried out in grief.

At this time, the people in the tent were also silent, and their breathing was suppressed to the extreme. Only Yuwentai's sad cries echoed in the entire tent.

"The Bodhisattva has abandoned me, Brahma. What should I do next? Who should I entrust with the important matters of the family and the country..."

When both his father and brother died, Yu Wentai only shed a few tears and then wiped away his tears, reluctantly leading his family to move on. Now that he has learned that his most trusted nephew died suddenly, at the critical moment when he was about to confront the uncontrollable Fang Zhen, Yu Wentai's mentality could no longer remain stable, and his emotions were on the verge of collapse.

He and Director Yu Wen are called uncles and nephews, but in fact they are not much different in age, and their relationship is even deeper than that of brothers. Especially since he established himself in Kansai, Director Yuwen has been his most important assistant in his career and his most reassuring subordinate. The sudden death of Director Yuwen had a huge impact on him both emotionally and in career arrangements!

Yuchigang was also in tears at this moment. He came forward and lay down in front of Yuwentai's knees and cried bitterly: "No, it's not God's will. This is obviously a man-made disaster! My brother died suddenly, and my cousin Bodhisattva died of illness now. All, all It was Li Boshan, this thief, this thief who caused trouble and harmed my dearest relatives... Uncle, let me, let me go to my hometown to kill all his people and let them be wiped out in Kansai!"

Although Yuwentai was extremely sad, he still had some sense in his heart. When he heard Yuchigang's murderous words, he covered his face and cried while shaking his head and said: "No, it must be! Sabao is still there, it must, must be Let Sabao return safely!"

"Can you just endure it like this?"

When Yu Chigang heard this, he immediately stared with tears in his eyes and said with grief and anger: "Li Boshan has blatantly refused to order. If there is no sanction, who of the self-proclaimed powerful people in the country will be willing to accept it? Besides, my family is now. If you don’t establish your authority by killing several people, I’m afraid there will be more and more people with evil intentions!”

"Kill, of course we must kill! We must kill so fiercely that those with evil intentions will be frightened, and the people inside and outside will not dare to change their minds again!"

The grief in his heart gradually turned to numbness, and Yuwentai's thoughts gradually began to change. His sad face gradually converged, and he murmured: "Tens of thousands of troops are stranded outside, and it is difficult for the river defense armored soldiers to dispatch. Now the Longyou Division Brigade I have temporarily lost control. Fighting strength is no longer my strength, I can only fight with my wits!"

Indulging in grief will not help. Yuwentai knows that if he does not find a chance to break the situation quickly, when the news of Yuwen Dao's death spreads, people inside and outside will be even more confused, and the chaotic situation will probably be even more difficult to recover. If not handled properly, his hegemonic authority may be completely destroyed!

Now that Li Boshan and Jingzhou troops are far away in Jiangling, Yu Wentai is difficult to reach directly, and he has temporarily lost the ability to impose sanctions. Only by finding a way to break the situation within the personnel within his control can he regain control of the situation as soon as possible!

After determining what was the top priority, Yuwentai's thoughts moved faster and faster, and various thoughts continued to collide and merge to gradually form an idea and train of thought. His eyes also changed from the previous sadness and confusion to fierce determination, and he said in a deep voice Said: "The story of Zhang Yi can be repeated. Although drinking poison to quench thirst, it is better than sitting back and waiting for death! If Li Boshan is willing to give in, things can still turn around, but if he remains strong and unyielding, then both sides will suffer, and the power will return to the East!"

It was now the end of the year, and the news that Li Tai had led an army to capture Jiangling had already spread throughout Guanzhong. Although Yuwentai's request for a special title for Li Tai's father was ultimately unsuccessful due to Li Xiao's refusal, the act itself also revealed that the Bafu was at its wits' end and unable to do anything when facing the current Jingzhou Military Palace.

This incident is undoubtedly a great benefit to the Guandong clans. Since the Six Towns Mutiny, the border town warriors have been controlling the power of the Northern Dynasty. From the Erzhu clan to the six towns warriors, even if the Northern Dynasty split into the east and west In the Wei Dynasty, the people in power on both sides were also Beizhen warriors. The position of the Guandong clans in the current situation was quite embarrassing.

Unexpectedly, a Li Boshan would emerge now, creating a new world in the Western Wei Dynasty when Beizhen Wufu was in power. His power had grown to such an extent that even the Overlords could not check and balance it. This also made many Kanto clans see them. The opportunity to return to the mainstream of the current situation naturally excited everyone.

However, although Li Boshan's power was powerful, it was far south of Wuguan after all, and there was no reverse penetration back to Guanzhong. Therefore, even though these Guandong aristocratic families were excited, they did not dare to show it too obviously, lest they be angered and attacked by the Guanzhong hegemony who still held great power.

But they are not completely inactive. Some of the more senior figures among them have already begun to try to fight for some rights and interests.

Yang Kuan, who was born in the Yang family of Hongnong, not only had the aspiration of the family, but also had a solid foundation of rural power in Guanzhong. His father, Yang Jun, was the general of Huaishuo Town, and he was very important to the Heba family and other North Town warriors. He had been promoted, so Yang Kuan's position in the Guanzhong situation was also very transcendent, and he was able to gain the respect of all parties.

In the past, Taishi Yuwentai was able to successfully confer the title of king, and Yang Kuan was also very effective in expressing his stance and liaison. This is because Li Tai, who initiated this matter, promised Yang Kuan that as long as this matter can be successfully implemented, he will cooperate with the candidates proposed by Yang Kuan to control the situation in Mianbei.

As a result, the Chinese and Foreign Governments sent Yu Wenhu, Yu Jin and other armies southward. If Li Tai was deprived of his military and political power in the southeast, the agreement Yang Kuan had reached with Li Tai would naturally be difficult to follow through on.

Yang Kuan was naturally disappointed with this, and secretly complained that Li Tai was so young and frivolous that he sent troops to Huainan at such a critical moment. As a result, someone took the opportunity to steal his home, which disappointed his previous expectations. .

But when the news of various reversals came back to Guanzhong, Yang Kuan was also excited. In order to seize this lost opportunity, he also wrote to the court repeatedly to put forward his opinions on the arrangements for the situation in the southeast. He was one of the few who dared to ignore the Bafu's face. And the person who takes a stand.

Among the various suggestions Yang Kuan made to the court, one of the more important ones was that the soldiers who were going to Jiangling this time should be stationed directly there to facilitate the court's control of the newly developed territory.

Of course, his true inner thoughts are to penetrate and control these troops while the army is stationed outside and the Bafu cannot actually control them.

Although Li Taicai was the boss in the southeast, and by attracting investment to Mianbei, many powerful people in Guanzhong were in awe of him and did not dare to be enemies, but it was difficult to completely control these people.

After all, the real bulk of the rural capital and family property of these powerful people is still in Guanzhong, and after the Jingzhou Military Government and the Chinese and Foreign Governments turned against each other, Yuwentai would not tolerate Li Tai continuing to expand his influence in Guanzhong, and the Hongnong Yang family's role in it was reflected.

Yang Kuan is not just using his words. He knows that it is not easy to get the approval of the Bafu and finally implement this matter, so he has been working hard to invite and lobby Guanzhong Shiliu during this period, hoping to get it. Real support and help.

At the same time, Yang Kuan was also very fortunate that Li Tai's father, Li Xiao, was not deceived by the vanity of high-ranking officials and rashly accepted the official title awarded to him by the Chinese and Foreign Governments. If Li Xiao really entered the dynasty, he would undoubtedly transfer some of the relevant people to the throne. Once Yang Kuan is attracted to him, it will be difficult for him to take away his brilliance.

As the performance of Jingzhou Military Mansion and Li Tai became more and more powerful, Yang Kuan's activities in Guanzhong were also quite effective. Many members of Guan Longhaoyou and the Guandong family have expressed their opinions one after another. As long as the emperor returns to Chang'an from Shayuan, they can express their support for him in the court and allow this matter to pass the court discussion.

By that time, it no longer matters what Bafu's attitude is, because Bafu is no longer the only authority in the Western Wei Dynasty! They only need to confirm the name through the court meeting and send it out, and the Jingzhou Military Government will naturally implement it.

However, the emperor had been staying in Shayuan, and Shayuan was occupied by Bafu's confidants and Beizhen veterans. Yang Kuan and others did not dare to go there rashly, so they could only continue to build momentum in Chang'an and wait for the emperor's return.

On this day, Yang Kuan hosted a banquet at home to entertain his eldest grandson Shaoyuan. As the head of the Northern Wei clan, the eldest grandson's influence was also very extraordinary. It would be great if he could speak out in support of Yang Kuan's proposal. However, Changsun Shaoyuan had reservations about Yang Kuan's proposal because he was worried about the previous conflict with Li Boshan.

Today, Yang Kuan made a special trip to persuade the eldest grandson Shaoyuan. After the eldest grandson Shaoyuan came to the door and exchanged greetings with each other, Yang Kuan began to speak out the words he had planned in his heart one after another. The various prospect descriptions also made the eldest grandson Shaoyuan quite tempted. , almost couldn't help but agree to Yang Kuan's proposal to work together on this matter.

However, at this time, an unusually noisy commotion suddenly came from outside Yang Kuan's house, and even the conversation in the hall was seriously disturbed. Yang Kuan was naturally very unhappy about this. He frowned and said angrily: "What happened outside!"

"Lord, there is a group of Imperial Guard soldiers passing through the long street in front of the gate, lingering and refusing to leave!"

Soon the slaves outside the hall came in to report. After hearing this, Yang Kuan said with a dissatisfied look on his face: "Quickly summon the strong slaves in the household to drive away those soldiers, so that they can no longer disturb the distinguished guests in the hall!"

Many of the Changsun family's children served in the Liufang Forbidden Army, so after hearing this, Changsun Shaoyuan also summoned his followers and said: "Go and see who those soldiers and commanders are. You are really blind. How dare you Making noise in front of Huashan Palace!"
